Hela looked at the Shilin Ancestors with interest on her face, and I immediately grew curious. "What is it?"
"I sense... something unusual about him. Something isn't quite right." This was Hela's first time meeting the Shilin People's Old Ancestor. I had no idea how much she knew about them, but she seemed completely unfamiliar with them. "I only heard that you had revived your own ancestors. I didn't expect to see them so soon... These are them? Why is the information entanglement around them so peculiar? It's as if certain parts have paused. Some of the information has solidified, yet it hasn't completely stagnated."
As expected of one of the two most learned beings in the void, Hela saw at a glance the strange "immortal state" of the Shilin Ancestors.
"We haven't figured it out either." I shrugged. "The ancestors were already in a very strange immortal state when we found them. It was as if time no longer affected them at all, and their bodies had remained in the state they were in a very, very long time ago. We were only able to revive them because of that state. Actually, what you see now is already different from the beginning. After their revival, the ancestors' bodies began to reactivate, so the original immortal state has loosened somewhat. The feeling of 'stagnation' was even more obvious at first."
"Oh." Hela frowned. She seemed to have heard quite a bit about the Shilin Ancestors from Xingchen and was clearly taking this seriously. "A strange immortal state... I have never heard of such a thing. Neither ordinary matter nor extraordinary entities, not even gods who have attained immortality, would enter an immortal state that resembles passive stagnation. From my observations, rather than being immortal, he has ceased responding to 'change.'
